Wow, Lynn. I just...wow. Powerful piece. I can't even begin to fathom the pain, heartache, and overall roughness of the life you (and L&C by extension) are going through. It's very, very easy to see how you've drawn from your real-life experiences to bring us this small glimpse into your world/L&C's world. Thank you for that.
Here's to hoping you (and L&C) find a solution that works well, and which gives you all the peace you deserve.
Thank you, again, for sharing this intensely personal story.
